Turbo

Has anyone installed a turbo from a 5.9 Cummins to a 1990 7.3? What might be needed? I received the turbo for free so basically I need everything else. Surely this is possible to do. Thanks.












1990 F250 4x4 7.3 non turbo

holy buckets ... you will need lots of other parts to make that work. Along with the parts you will need to manufacture parts to accomodate that turbo.

exhaust connections, lube line, turbo mount. It is doable but lots of extra work compared to buying a kit for the ford.

Thanks, I'll also see if I can get more of the parts needed from the person I received the turbo from.
